A wild and witchy welcome to this month's newsletter! We're sending it out a day later than usual.
If you've already been celebrating Halloween we hope you had a fun time and the hangovers from the 'witching hour' haven't been too bad!
We ourselves love the British tradition of 'Guy Fawkes night' which we hope to enjoy next weekend!
This month we're talking about new kits from Bothy and Lanarte, the latest Bella Filipina design, new bead boxes and more printed Aida, Evenweave and Linen fabrics from Fabric Flair.
We also have an important announcement concerning our Winter break this year.
Now, to business ...
Kits, Charts and Supplies
Bothy Threads have released their Autumn 2023 catalogue and
their catalogue for the entire range and let us know if there's anything that especially takes your fancy.
Lanarte's latest design
Olivia, the Forest Witch is already very popular. The beads and treasures are on order for the embellishments pack and we hope they'll arrive soon.
We've replenished our stock of
new bead boxes with fourteen compartments which complement the seven compartment version and are only slightly pricier.
Winter Break
This year we've decided to take an extended break and to shut down the website for most of the month of December - starting on the 8th and continuing into January next year.
We just need a chance to recharge our batteries
We'll send you a reminder in our next newsletter at the end of November.
We've been under pressure this past year from encroaching bureaucracy, price rises and Royal Mail and other supplier problems. This has meant a lot of extra behind the scenes work (still going on!).
What kept us going was the continuing kindness and forbearance of our customers many of whom had to wait months earlier in the year after Royal Mail's systems completely collapsed and we couldn't send anything overseas.
So a big shout out from us to you all. We definitely have the best customers in the world!
